A huge THANK YOU to Tri-Arrows Aluminum for their incredible support of our school community through the Million Cans Contest!

Throughout the year, Tri-Arrows Aluminum generously provided prizes for our 3rd graders as they reached each benchmark, helping keep students motivated and excited about making a difference. Even more exciting, when our school reached its overall goal, they rewarded every student with a Silent Disco celebration!

Our Braves had an amazing time dancing, laughing, and celebrating their hard work together. We are so grateful for community partners like Tri-Arrows Aluminum who invest in our students and help create memorable experiences for them.

Thank you, Tri-Arrows Aluminum, for your generosity and for making this year's Million Cans Contest such a success!

🏹✨ Introducing the Gabby Bright Award ✨🏹

During our 5th Grade Promotion, we were honored to begin a new tradition within our archery program as we presented the very first Gabby Bright Award.

Gabby was a valued member of our archery team who was known for her hard work, dedication, and determination to always improve. Her positive impact on our program continues to inspire those who knew her.

We were especially grateful to have Gabby’s grandparents, John and Trisha Wright, join us to present this meaningful award in her honor.

The Gabby Bright Award will be presented annually to an archer who exemplifies the same perseverance, work ethic, and commitment that Gabby displayed throughout her time on the team.

Congratulations to our inaugural recipient, Carolina McDonald! Carolina demonstrated outstanding dedication and resilience throughout the season and is a deserving recipient of this special honor.

Thank you to the Wright family for helping us celebrate Gabby’s legacy. Her spirit will continue to inspire our archers for years to come.

Our lost aim found items are currently located on the back porch of the school. They will remain there until tomorrow, Friday, May 29 at 3pm. After that all items will be donated.

We hope all of our Braves and their families have a fun, relaxing, and safe summer break filled with sunshine, laughter, and lots of great memories! Thank you for making this school year so special — we are so proud of each and every one of our Braves! 💙💛
